Built in 1924 and lovingly maintained by the same family for 75 years, this detached home offers a rare opportunity to own a property with history, character, and exceptional outdoor space. Original hardwood floors reflect the home's heritage, while thoughtful updates support modern living, including a custom, professionally renovated kitchen with Silestone countertops and stainless steel appliances, as well as an updated 4-piece bathroom. The flexible layout includes a main-floor bedroom, a second-floor primary bedroom, and a generous sitting area that can function as a reading nook, dressing area, home office, or private retreat. A combined living and dining room creates a comfortable gathering space, while the semi-finished basement adds valuable room for storage, hobbies, or future improvements. The backyard is the standout feature. Beautifully landscaped with mature trees, lilacs, flowering gardens, a pond, and a 10' x 12' gazebo, it offers a remarkable sense of privacy with no residential neighbours surrounding the property. A detached garage and private driveway provide practical parking and storage. Adding to the property's flexibility, zoning permits both residential and commercial uses, offering options for those who may wish to incorporate a home-based business, a professional workspace, or other permitted uses over time.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $756/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Oshawa's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Oshawa are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Efficient Living
At 700 sqft, this is a more compact space. The upside: lower utility bills, less maintenance, and easier cleaning. Consider how you'll use the space - built-in storage, multi-functional furniture, and good organization become important. Great for singles, couples, or those who prefer a low-maintenance lifestyle.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Oshawa properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $2,204 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
